600 isn't an absolute line - it's not as though the number 600 magically represents safety. We should try to get as close to 600 as possible but our community is already dealing with COVID we shouldn't add inmates we don't have a baseline level of confidence can follow the law.
We've hired and are paying babysitters they are called probation officers. I don't like them I don't think they are effective, but they as a solution are much cheaper than mass incarceration. I would not ever condone the usage of incarceration short of violent crime.

We both agree - They're not effective and therefore not worth spending money on. They're not a solution. My solution is jail, what would you do with someone who repeatedly robbed their neighbors demonstrating that they are unfit to live in our community?

Incarceration is a solution unfit for society. In this moment of pandemic there is no theft that would mean to me that the risks of incarceration to society exceed the risks of a free thief. A better system should be created but for now if I was god they go free.
